President Trump Kicks Off Black History Month

With a major plot twist. You can celebrate Black History Month WITHOUT any DEI policies.

(As for me, maybe I'll think seriously about BHM when they actually recognize Caucasian History Month.)
CNN contributor and White House correspondent for TheGrio, April Ryan, wanted to know the Trump White House's plans for Black History Month, which has traditionally been celebrated in February after it was first recognized by President Gerald Ford, Republican, back in 1976. Ryan was obviously concerned about the administration's efforts to scrub all traces of discriminatory DEI practices from the federal government.
Leavitt was prepared:
“As far as I know, this White House certainly still intends to celebrate, and we will continue to celebrate American history and the contributions that all Americans, regardless of race, religion or creed, have made to our great country,” Leavitt said. “And America is back.”
America is indeed back, and President Trump did indeed issue a Black History Month proclamation with a not-so-subtle sign that all black American patriots, not just the ones favored by the left, should be and would be honored.

Yuge change from the days of Joe Biden, who during his presidency honored the likes of Kamala Harris and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson in his proclamations.
This is a long time coming. For years, the accomplishments of black Americans like Thomas and Sowell have been overlooked, downplayed, and blatantly ignored by the left, who seemingly can't handle any black person who doesn't fall into line with their radical policies. Back in 2016, the Smithsonian opened the National Museum of African American History and Culture with nary a word about Clarence Thomas to be found in the entire building, something Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) later called an "irresponsible bias." The Smithsonian eventually added Justice Thomas to an existing display about Justice Thurgood Marshall. Mighty nice of them.
President Trump is holding true to his campaign promise to reverse course on the inequity pushed on Americans by the left, and it's about darn time that Thomas Sowell and Clarence Thomas get the recognition they deserve.
